Insight on Today's Quote
People often think of love as something big, like fireworks, big gestures, and perfect moments. But most of the time, it’s quiet. It’s found in patience when someone is tired, in kindness when someone is hurting, in choosing understanding instead of winning an argument.
Love connects you to other people and to the best part of yourself. When you lean into love, even in small ways, your life feels better, calmer, and more important.
Step Up To The Challenge
Pick one person today, whether they are a partner, friend, coworker, or even a stranger, and show them love in a way they don’t expect. It could be a short note of thanks, forgiving someone who made you mad, doing something nice without being asked, or giving someone your full attention.
One act of love can change the mood of the whole day. Let it begin with you. (1, 2, 3)
